A journey that always starts from the center, but how little do we know… for it is the look beyond the horizon that makes us reach stars far away. Unanswered questions beat with every pulse to remind us who we are. Velvet-red branches carry out to the brims the truth bursting with life. It is from the blind heart – that mere sphere of fire – that we whisper I am. No matter the inner cries or tribulations, no matter the otherness or myriad of yeses or noes.

I like to work on different levels of art, handicraft and design. I mix materials with conceptual content, especially from everyday life. I am a helpless collector of most everything, trash and wasted things but also material from nature, especially stones, shells and pieces of wood. The shape, condition and colour are significant and therefore a thing must very often wait for the right moment to be explored and developed because

Read MoreI paint jewels. That's a simple and quick statement I use to describe myself. I work professionally as a journalist and as an artist, always trying to deliver poetic stories. And trying definitely to do so on my jewelry through my paintings on volumes and shapes on pieces to wear. Painting has a key role in my work.It is always present rather directly applied into the piece or through the lines it describes.

Read MoreNo metaphors here. Wild animals that live in the forests of Romania (bears and lynxes in particular) are under threat. Poachers are hunting them down, their natural habitat is reduced through deforestation. We need to talk more about this and to find sustainable solutions to this problem. The pieces from my collection are built around cut out shapes of wild animals, as some sort of targets in a shooting range.
Read MoreThe journey in jewelry design started in 2017, at Assamblage Contemporary Jewelry School. The attraction to the jewelry world opened a different path – from adorning to creating. Attracted by shapes, sometimes geometrical, sometimes organic, chunky or delicate, by colors, or just letting the metal speak, I create my jewelry mainly in silver.

Read MoreWith a background of 5 years in fashion design, my fascination with jewellery making was sparked while I was putting together a ready-to-wear blazer collection for my brand at the time. While researching different styles to complete the looks, the image of contrasting silver brooches against the coarse fabric I was working with, made it all come together. I then decided to try and make

I’ve graduated Veterinary University and my first years of work were in the sales and marketing area for a

Read MoreI usually draw inspiration from various forms of nature. I often use trilobite fossils, which I combine with silver plant motifs or just organics shapes. The jewelry being created is an expression of my inner cry and resistance as a creator. A kind of exaggeration against overly artificial, indeterminate tensioned forms. My task as a metal artist is not to torture, suffocate, the object being created and to allow it to “live”
